You need to double your failure rate...Really? 📽️[vlog inside]

in blog •  8 years ago 

If you want to increase your success rate, double your failure rate.
Thomas J. Watson

Oook, That makes sense now ;)
More attempts equate to more overall success.

To get to success you must fail many times.

In sales, you must willing to call 100 people, and maybe you will get one sale.
Each rejection is a mini failure, but to quit working toward the next sale would be a major fail.
You only really fail completely, when you give up.

If you do not fear failure, there are more chances for success.
Being confident with fumbling is a great trait to have.
Can you pick yourself up and keep working toward your goals?
Fall and get up.
Repeat.
Eventually, you learn how to make it to the goal post.

Failure is inevitable. If we do not accept the possibility of failure, we will fear to take on new ventures that step us out of our comfort zone.

Thanks for checking out my post!
Greatly appreciate it

Hmm, makes sense.

:)

You have the point👍

:)
Thanks

Absolutely agree on this one. I would also add that failing takes great braveness because many of us are not ready to fail. In the era of constant progress we label failure as something generically bad and by that we are limiting ourselves greatly. From my point of view this is where the roots of the problem could come from.

is that your artwork?

Failure is success in progress

looks really catchy!

Totally agree brother - just gotta keep plugging away :)
